Prawn/shrimp culture industry in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1992)
The Philippines is an archipelago of more than 7,100 islands with 17,460 km of coastline, including mangrove forests which covered about 450,000 ha in the 1920s. Coastal aquaculture began a few centuries ago when earthen ...
Light color and ovarian maturation in unablated and ablated giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon (Fabricius)
(Elsevier, 1992)
The effect of light color (green, blue and white fluorescent lights, with natural light as a control) on maturation in intact and eyestalk-ablated Penaeus monodon was tested in 12-m<sup>3</sup> broodstock tanks. Size and ...
Studies on the sources of luminescent Vibrio harveyi in Penaeus monodon hatcheries
(Asian Fisheries Society, Fish Health Section, 1992)
One of the major problems in the otherwise highly successful Penaeus monodon hatchery industry in the Philippines is the occurrence of luminescent bacterial disease due to Vibrio harveyi. The possible sources of the bacteria ...
Effects of antioxidants on feed quality and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1992)
Four practical diets were formulated to contain 0.05%, of the following antioxidants: butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA), propyl gallate (PG) or ethoxyquin (ETHQ). A fifth diet, with no added ...
Chicken manure, rice hulls, and sugar-mill wastes as potential organic fertilizers in shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) ponds
(Elsevier, 1992)
Shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) were cultured (3000 juveniles/ha) in 50-m<sup>2</sup> earthen ponds fertilized with composted agricultural and industrial wastes at a basal application rate of 2 ton/ha. The following ...
A practical method of extracting mimosine from ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves and its effect on survival and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
Soaking fresh ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves in tap water (1:1, v/v; or 50 g in 500 ml) for 30-48 hours with a water change after 24 hours extract atleast 90% of its mimosine, a toxic lysine derivative. This ...
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon juveniles fed a diet lacking vitamin supplements in a modified extensive culture system
(Elsevier, 1992)
<i>Penaeus monodon</i> juveniles with mean initial weight from 0.11 to 0.17 g were fed diets with and without vitamin supplement. The diets contained 34% protein and 8% fat. The animals were stocked at 5/m<sup>2</sup> in ...
Effect of streamer tags on survival and growth of juvenile tiger prawns, Penaeus monodon, under laboratory conditions
(CSIRO Publishing, 1992)
The effects of streamer tags and initial prawn size on survival and growth in 2-month- and 7-month-old pond-reared juveniles of Penaeus monodon Fabricius (11-30 mm carapace length, CL) were assessed under laboratory ...
